I’ve been on the lookout for a white allium for years, but all the ones I’ve grown seemed a bit murky and grey to me. Until this one - Allium 'Silverspring' has clear white petals around purple centres. I love it.
- Perfect for pollinators
| Genus: | Allium |
| Variety | 'Silver Spring' |
| Type: | Deciduous |
| Soil Type: | Well-drained but fertile, add grit on heavy soils | Site: | Full sun | Height: | H. 60-90cm (2-3ft) | Spacing: | Plant 15cm deep, 20cm apart. | Hardiness: | Hardy | Care tips: | Remember these are very perennial so plant them somewhere permanent. Removing the tatty foliage doesn't appear to affect the bulbs. | Flowers: | ❀ June - July | For the vase: | Add a drop of bleach to the water to minimise the oniony smel or change the water regularly. They will look good for up to 2 weeks without rearranging |
